this is the performance that made me purchase their entire back catalogue... people speak of life changing occurrences every day... this was one of them for me
Saw them live three times; twice in Detroit, and their last gig in Cincinnati, where Bogart's was stuffed to the rafters with people. John Curly played one hell of a bass guitar, and certainly Greg Dulli's stage presence was a big part of this band's attraction to many people, including the girl who I was dating at the time. You can see Dulli in his current project, the Twilight Singers, in other clips here on You Tube. He was gained a lot of weight, but still belts out a tune.
I have listened to this album, "1965", at least 200+ times. Why did they never catch on? Greg Dulli has one of the best voices ever. The songs on this album flow perfectly from start to finish. I highly recommend getting "1965".
I wonder that myself, why they never caught on (more). However, its not all bands that have major label albums. I personally would be happy with their level of success if it was me. As far as Dulli's voice goes, I think you either love it or hate it. I cant tell you how many people I've tried to initiate into them, only to get "jesus, this guy cant sing at all !" in return.
I can't believe these guys didn't have more success in their time. They had some alternative rock records as good as any ever made. This is the first song I saw them perform and it's still a personal favourite. Go Dulli!
Awesome performance. Met Greg Dulli in Manchester '04, fully expecting him to be a knobhead. He was charm personified.

They should have huge, but alas, didn't fit into the Nirvana, Pearl Jam mold. Same as Dinosaur Jr.

Yes, I totally agree. Dulli's voice is so great to me, but others I tried to turn on to the Whigs haven't liked it. My friends are stoopid. :)
